Abstract

Suivre le cheminement de Roland Arpin, c'est aussi voir se dérouler à travers une seule personne l'histoire idéologique du Québec depuis les années 1930 jusqu'aux années 1990. C'est également comprendre comment naît et se développe un leader. Comprendre l'homme, c'est ainsi mieux comprendre cette part du patrimoine québécois qu'est le Musée de la civilisation : un musée ouvert sur le monde, axé sur la pédagogie et sur l'apprentissage.

Abstract

What does it mean to turn the public library or museum into a civic forum? Made in Newark describes a turbulent industrial city at the dawn of the twentieth century and the ways it inspired the library's outspoken director, John Cotton Dana, to collaborate with industrialists, social workers, educators, and New Women. This is the story of experimental exhibitions in the library and the founding of the Newark Museum Associationùa project in which cultural literacy was intertwined with civics and consumption. Local artisans demonstrated crafts, connecting the cultural institution to the department store, school, and factory, all of which invoked the ideal of municipal patriotism. Today, as cultural institutions reappraise their relevance, Made in Newark explores precedents for contemporary debates over the ways the library and museum engage communities, define heritage in a multicultural era, and add value to the economy.
